COPPERBANK ANNOUNCES CLOSE OF NON-BROKERED PRIVATE PLACEMENT
& JOEY WILKINS TO TECHNICAL ADVISORY
Vancouver, Canada – May 13, 2020 - CopperBank Resources Corp. (“CopperBank” or the
“Company”) (CSE:CBK) is pleased to announce it has closed a non-brokered private placement.
The private placement consisted of the issuance of 1,350,000 shares, at a price of $0.06, for a total
of $81,000. No finder’s fees were paid as part of this private placement.
CopperBank CEO Gianni Kovacevic comments on the financing: “This top-up financing is in the
spirit of our previous cash injections, above the market and without the issuance of warrants. Our
100 percent owned advanced stage development Copper Creek and Contact Projects both have
modest holding costs and continue to garner considerable third-party interest. It would require in
excess of USD $100 million to duplicate the work programs, land acquisitions and historical tech-
nical reports completed on the projects. CopperBank remains well positioned to advance our Pro-
jects systematically while further considering the impact of dilution to our stakeholders.”
The Company also reports that Joseph Wilkins has joined its Technical Advisory Group. Based
in Tucson, Arizona, Mr. Wilkins has worked as a geologist for thirty-four years, including twenty-
three years with various entities of Rio Tinto Exploration (Kennecott Exploration and US Borax).
A graduate in Geoscience from the University of Arizona, Mr. Wilkins has extensive experience
in exploration for porphyry copper worldwide, Au-Ag epithermal deposits, Ni-Cu-PGM deposits,
and borate deposits. He was based in Mexico for six years with an emphasis on porphyry type
systems including work on Penasquito and peripheral to Cananea. Later, he led brownfield or ‘near
mine’ exploration peripheral to Bingham Canyon in Utah which ultimately led to the discovery of
deep and high grade Cu-Mo ore bodies. Mr. Kovacevic comments: “Joey has been to all of our
projects and in fact lives less than one hour from our Copper Creek Project . We now have two
key members of our team in close proximity to Copper Creek where we continue to review and
share data with groups that have taken an interest in the project.”
The Company also reports that Steve Bastable has resigned as a director of the Company. Mr.
Kovacevic, comments: “Steve provided valuable continuity to the group as part of the Copper
Creek acquisition in 2018. We understand that Steve’s other endeavours increasingly require more
of his time and effort and we wish him much success.”
The private placement is subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange and the
securities will be subject to a four month and one day hold period under securities laws.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the private placement to maintain its portfolio
of projects as well as general working capital.

looking information. Such factors and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the Company’s
ability to identify and complete one or more transactions involving the Company’s portfolio assets
that enhance shareholder value as part of management’s ongoing review of strategic alternatives

ited to, the risk that the Company will not be able to identify and complete one or more transactions
involving the Company’s portfolio assets that enhance shareholder value as part of management’s
ongoing review of strategic alternatives in the current market conditions. Although CopperBank
has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to
differ materially from forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions,
